DECISION
1. This appeal was heard by a Deputy Judge of the Upper Tribunal in Field House on 2 June 2016. As explained in the Tribunal's letter to the parties dated 11 August 2016, the judge has been unwell and unable to complete his written decision.
2. At a hearing before me on 26 September 2016 the parties agreed that Judge Archer had given a decision orally on 2 June 2016, to the effect that the decision of the First-tier Tribunal was to be set aside and that the appeal would be remitted back to the First-tier Tribunal for a decision to re-made afresh.
3. Rule 40(1) of the Tribunal Procedure (Upper Tribunal) Rules 2008 provides that the Upper Tribunal may give a decision orally at a hearing. Rule 40(3) provides that the Upper Tribunal must provide written reasons for its decision with a decision notice unless the parties have consented to the Upper Tribunal not giving written reasons.
4. At the hearing the parties consented to waive the requirement for written reasons in this case.
5. In the circumstances, pursuant to the decision given orally by Judge Archer on 2 June 2016, the FtT's decision contains an error of law and is set aside. The appeal is remitted to the FtT to determine afresh.
